According to TrueUp data, as of January 2025, the number of open positions in the crypto industry reached 5,154, an increase of more than 40% from the end of 2023. Among them, OKX, Crypto.com and Binance opened 473, 399 and 361 positions respectively. Recruitment demand is mainly concentrated in the fields of marketing, talent recruitment and enterprise development. Scott Fletcher, a partner at recruitment consultancy Intersection Growth Partners, said crypto hiring has recovered to peak levels in 2022 with the support of the new government. Traditional Financial Institution Groups have also started to lay out crypto businesses, and institutions such as Morgan Stanley have said they will work with regulators on crypto services. In addition, with Stripe's acquisition of Bridge for $1.10 billion and Robinhood's acquisition of Bitstamp for $200 million, the industry expects a further increase in M & A activity.
